hi mal,
that looks unreal! how many speeds does it have? are you going to have a separate water spray switch for the front window? how much does the kit cost?
cheers

Hey guys,
Wasn't sure about doing the insert in white on the side, so I tried something different.
The inserts are cut out of a set of HR premier sill moulds.
I think it looks pretty good.
What do you all think??

Works well i think Malcolm, you are doing well puting your own stamp on the car. Is that a fiberglass boot lid ?

Ben, no its original, its just the colour it was from when I bought it. Its the only part that wasn't blasted and etched.

Thanks Malcolm, have never taken much notice of sedan boot lids, they look to be nicely finished/rounded in the inside.

Looks awesome Malcolm.
As for colour, is going to be two tone? White roof/coloured body? Or vice versa? Factory colours? Any clues?
